Session 15 Advances in Instruments, Deployments, and Services of Mesonets and Micronets

Thursday, 16 January 2025: 1:45 PM-3:00 PM
348 (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)
Host: 25th Symposium on Meteorological Observation and Instrumentation
Chair:
Sasha Ivans, PhD, OTT Hydromet
CoChair:
Timothy J. Wagner, NOAA, Global Systems Laboratory, Boulder, CO

This session is structured to showcase new sensors, observation methods, and data application related to mesonet and micronet systems. Advancements include broadening sensing capabilities to support health monitoring (such as heat index), vertical profiling abilities, snow water equivalent (SWE) measurements, and other distinctive sensing techniques. The primary objective of this session is to emphasize innovative products from both new and established network systems.
